Abstract
At the Nepean Hospital tansabdominal ultrasound has been used to assis t the hysteroscopic surgeon when performing complicated transcervical operations. The 2 main areas of use appear to be either to direct the surgeon within the uterus to the site of pathology or to prevent inadv ertent perforation of the uterine wall. The cases vary from haematomet ra following endometrial ablation to Asherman syndrome and subseptate uteri.
